Cut three 2” wide strips of the Reflectix
®
Reflective/Bubble/Bubble/Reflective product at twice the
circumference of the water heater (to be utilized as spacers).
Attach the three strips (doubled) around the circumference of the water heater (top, bottom and
middle).
• Cut the Reflectix

at a width equal to the height of the water heater. Secondly, cut the length of the
product equal to the circumference measured on the outside of the spacers plus 1”.

shortage. The seam between the 48” sheet and the “extension” piece will need to be taped with

Foil Tape on both sides.
Wrap the Reflectix
®
around the water heater and tape the vertical seam with Reflectix
